Giveaway: 52 Weeks of Dishcloths

I love knitting things that I know are going to get a lot of use. Sweaters are great, but even as always-cold as I am, they only get used for a pretty small portion of the year.

That’s why I like knitting things for the home that we can see and use throughout the year. From blankets to pillows to dishcloths, it’s just nicer to use things that you’ve made yourself, am I right?

This week I have three digital copies of a great book all about making dishcloths to give away. 52 Weeks of Dishcloths from Knit Picks actually has 60 patterns, 33 for knitters and 27 for crocheters. They range from pretty simple to requiring a few knitting skills like lace or colorwork, and they offer lots of different styles to suit your taste.

Dishcloths are fun to knit because you get to play with different techniques on a small scale but they’re still done relatively quickly, and they’re great to have on hand for a quick addition to a hostess or housewarming gift.

If you’d like to win one of these ebooks, leave a comment on this post before the end of the day Sunday, August 23. Why not tell me about something you’ve knit for your home or someone else’s home? My goal for the winter is to finally finish a big stash busting afghan I’ve been working on for a really long time.

this is exactly what I’ve been looking for!!! a collection of cute durable clothes all in one spot! no more browsing all over the internet to find great patterns! I have a small stash started but now i would be able to knit or crochet with flying fingers!
